Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Arrive during daylight hours if using a buggy, as the natural terrain can be hilly and bumpy. Consider leaving buggies in the car for the tractor ride.
- Book tickets online in advance, especially for Peak dates, as on-the-door entry is subject to availability.
- Allow ample time for your visit; the Halloween Trail is recommended for at least 90 minutes, and combining it with pumpkin picking requires additional time.
- Dress for the weather and be prepared for rain, as the event runs 'come rain or shine.' Wellies and umbrellas are recommended.
- Check the specific opening hours for your chosen date, as they vary between weekdays, weekends, and Sundays/Bank Holidays.
